Well considering 8 years of torture apparently didn't even make Lucas reveal the whole John thing, I'd say FSB fails at interrogation.

Clearly every intelligence agency is an idiot from the way the writers are writing this story.

I know it was something to do with a club of some sort, but how did she make the connection? Because if she made the connection fairly easily, it seems odd that the FSB/CIA wouldn't have done (if we completely ignore the fact that MI5 apparently had no idea what Lucas looked like )

Harry told Beth to search for any match to Lucas North in Dakar since he was surprised to learn that Lucas had been in Dakar around the time of the embassy bombing. Beth found a profile of Lucas North in the files of this sports club in Dakar, she saw the picture was not our Lucas but the signature on the form says Lucas North. That's how she notices that something was not right.
